  1. King Gizz have gone all Alex and Gloomy on a Saturday night.
  2. Fuck that, he's paying rent like the rest of us!
  3. I didn't say fresh, I said more like the original but hey we are never going to agree on muzac are we. @Ayatollah Hermione Not taking the piss, more out of interest but who in 2006 was making decent PP?
  4. Wasn't Ant the furry? Positive he went full costume with the Flaming Lips one time.
  5. I just need to bring this over from Reddit before it is lost forever! Not sure who VirtuaStiva is (hands up please) but yes Yard Act are good and are part of the wider post-punk revival that has been going on for the last 5 years but I'm not sure where the bands from 15 years ago come from. Yeah there was some terrbile commercial shite trying to steal bits of post-punk but they all sounded wrong, except Life Without Building but they were the exception. The thing about this wave is they have all taken that sound from 1979-84 and made some great music. Bands like Shame, IDLES, Courting, Necking that have leant heavily on the punk side of post-punk (so Wire/Magazine inspired) and then you have the Gang of Four inspired bands (Dry Cleaning, Protomartyr, Drahla, B Boys, Viagra Boys, etc) , The Fall inspired bands (Yard Act, Do Nothing, I Like Trains, Dumb, Priests, Low Hummer). Then there is the whole Slits, chick thing with more great bands, Shopping, etc; the Birthday Party inspired bands (Bambara, Lark, etc) and the German post-punk sound, DIAT, AUS, Liik. Post-punk is the strongest it has ever been and no one is trying to sound like Joy Division, which great because no one will ever sound like them again as Interpol found out. Oh and a lot of it is all coming from the Leeds area. Anyway that's way to many words for a music post. Then there is this bunch of crack whores out of Canada!
  6. So going all Deano, play Fraser and Almiron on the wings? Manquillo at LB and Dummett and Schar as CB?
  7. Wood will score, just like Wilson will but this is our problem... Aiming long balls and crosses at our striker's head when they are all alone and marked by two or three centre backs will never result in goals. Two of three useless cunts in our midfield need replacing and should never been near the starting lineup again.
  8. Once Steinman went they took the words right out of Meatloaf's mouth anyway, suppose two out of three ain't bad!
  9. Looking forward to this but no it’s not a collection of EPs from last year, what they decide to do is release it in four quarters. So it will be a double album on vinyl and they have been releasing one track from each side, so four tracks each release, every month since they announced it. That means next month with be the fourth and final release and also when they will actually physically make available the whole thing. Anyway.
  10. We need our kit to be one of these just so Shelvey has to wear the mask and we don’t have to look at that stupid expression on his face as he hoofs another useless long ball to no one/the opposition/into touch, delete as applicable!
  11. Here’s the thing, get relegated and we will be fucked by FFP as with the new “rules” a championship promoted club will not be given a tier sponsorship value that a current PL club is allocated (the PL has made sure will be fucked with their new rules with this), so they really need to bite the bullet and pull out all stops to not get relegated.
  12. Wasn't there a badly kept rumour that Simple Minds was the band Bono wanted to be based on/bigger than? I bought a secondhand copy of Sister Feelings Call a while ago which is another great album.
  13. Sorry to hear that Tom. Mate when all is good just PM me where to send the donation and I'll get it sorted.
  14. @Tom what happened with this? Or did it disappear with the hangover?
  15. Seems to have matured from just formations but the player rating seemed a bit of a giveaway.
  16. There is no doubt that Carlos is going to be miles better than what we currently have but I’d be concerned about how good his english is, especially if we are hoping for him to organise what we already have. And all this concern about FFP, once the Armco and Saudi Royal Air deals happen and the sponsors for everything from pasta to official tissue suppliers goes through the club will be rolling in it. The biggest priority is fixing our midfield.
  17. I just read Pat Fish of the Jazz Butcher died in October last year.
  18. Fucking hell what a trip that was! Now back to our normal program.
